How to enrol
Before enrolling on a course we will meet with you to talk to you about your needs and interests. To arrange a meeting please contact a member of the Supported Learning Team who will let you know what information you need to bring with you. This will include evidence of any benefits you receive so we can see if you are eligible for any of our free courses.
It is important you are placed on the right course, whether you want to learn a new skill or maintain existing skills, so we may need to assess your English and maths starting points.
Contact the Customer Service Team who can email you a copy of our current course directory. Email adultlearning@surreycc.gov.uk or call 0300 200 1044.
